Hooked by Tiffany Nowicki. A wonderful rug. Tiffany’s snow and sky colors are just super together, more like a background. The glow on the candles gives you a feeling of a winter night. The red door on the cabin is fun.

Winter Wonderland (23 x 58)
Hooked by Jennifer Figgins
Hooked by Jennifer Figgins of Sandy, Utah. Just a wonderful winter rug. So much fun and very special. Jennifer was losing the trees so she hooked a darker area behind them to bring them forward. Her use of color in the entire rug is just super. The border was designed by Jule Marie Smith and me and is not available. Note the way Jennifer hooked the cat with different orange wools. An orange striped kitty for sure.

Wool Barn (36 x 43)
Hooked by Doloris Brown
Hooked by Doloris Brown of York, Pennsylvania. Her stars are just wonderful. Doloris used some great soft plaids for them. They sort of blend in with the background, but are soft and visible. The small flag on the barn is neat too!

Hooked by Linda Traen
Hooked by Linda Traen of Lincoln, Nebraska. Linda is a student of Soni Cassell’s in Lincoln. I think that the different color stars in the big flag are super fun. Linda added the dogs and I love the way she used the lighter greens to highlight the animals in the meadow. I also like the line just at the top of the stone wall. Thanks to both Soni and Linda.
Wool Barn (36 x 43)
Hooked by Lynda Stout
Lynda Stout of Lees Summit, Missouri hooked this Wool Barn. So different from Penny’s but also wonderful. Again I think that it is fun to see the way rug makers hook their own hearts and minds in the rugs.
Wool Barn (36 x 43)
Hooked by Mercedes Hnizdo
Mercedes Hnizdo of Hope, New Jersey hooked this with me at the Kinderhook Rug Camp in January 2003. She did a super job. I absolutely love her stone wall. The odd sheep is nifty.
Wool Barn (36 x 43)
Hooked by Penny Gessner
Penny Gessner of Ligonier, Pennsylvania hooked this rug. A wonderful rendition of this pattern. If you look closely at the stone wall, you may see that Penny used some “weird” greens in the stones. Sure does look like moss. The hint of red used in the line between the background and the border helps carry the flag red around the rug. The border was hooked using the same wools as the barn. Looks very weathered and old.

This Woolley Wool Keeper was hooked by Teresa McKinney of Topeka, Kansas. I absolutely love the background on this rug. Lots of fun movement. I also really like Teresa’s idea to put the word “wool” above the sheep. Thanks, Teresa.
